Are these available in a staggered setup - 7.5x9?
They make 17x9.5 but offsets are only +28 and +12.

Default Ce28sl or Ce28N

Having a hard time deciding between the Ce28sl and Ce28N in diamond black to go on GPW.

Don't feel the machined lip but do like the red accents and lighter weight. Diamond black just looks gorgeous...

Tough choice yes! Either way honestly is good. Diamond Black CE28N may take a little longer to receive since the special color.

Thanks for the input. You're right both are good. Sigh*

Will 17x8.5 +45 in the front and 17x9 +45 in the rear on the Ce28SL require fender modifications? Currently on stock height with 17x7.5 +48 and 17x8.5 +50 TE37s and no fender mods.

Yes those sizes will require fender mods. The front will stick out around 15mm more and the rear about 10mm more. A typically roll with a rear bumper tab relocation will suffice.

Just read the Sticky wheel fitment guide, it says 17x9 45 rear won't require fender mod, if 245/40 tires are used but rather stick with 255/40. Sounds like 17x7.5 48 for the front is a better fit. Is that possible?

Currently running 225/45 in the front and 255/40 in the rear with no fender mods and no issues.

Just got a set in 17x7.5 +48 5x114.3 CE28SL

Tried out both Spoon Caliper and ST40 Caliper, they both do not clear. The Spoon requires at least a 5mm spacer and the ST40 I would say around 10mm spacer.

Have you checked to see if the 17x9+45 clears the Spoon caliper?

Hi. I like the 17x9 +63 for the rears but I don't mind going a square setup or staggered. Either works. I understand the 17x7.5 +48 fit with no issues for the front but I'm wondering if there is anything in 17s that are closest to factory OEM wheel offsets prefer no less than +44 in front that fit spoon, stoptech, brembo, apracing, or Wildwood bbks without spacers for the fronts. Sorry too much.

The only setup that will fit Spoon calipers without having touch fenders is the 17x9.0 +63 squared setup when going with CE28SL. We tried the ST40 Stoptech with the 17x9.0 +63 and it was very very close to caliper. I do not know about the other brake systems though. The Volks are currently on SEMA deep sale right now if you are interested!
